Does it chemically castrate humans?

This sounds REALLY scary. I hope I get some answers. JimRaynor 19:03, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Yes, there are a few cases, though I'm not sure if it was the same parasite. Just make sure you don't eat uncooked food! 130.71.96.23 05:51, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Parasites are known to castrate its intermediate host (like snails), sometimes. Not their definitive hosts. --Snek01 (talk) 13:58, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
